OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind.  In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships."  OPSEC is everyone's responsibility. 

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.  

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Two years ago today - we dropped our sailor off for boot camp!

How about your sailor? Is today his anniversary?

I need to post an update on some of our sailors -- perhaps tomorrow, today I just wanted to say...

Nick and his cousin Joey - last time they had seen each other they were both in boot camp. Now we have two 3rd class petty officers in the family!

Hey girl - have you heard from Justin since he arrived in california? I suspect they are keeping him mighty busy these next couple of weeks.

I'm gonna start a new discussion thread above...where are they now?! I'll fill in the blanks for a couple that I know but i think it would be nice to keep track of our 4.25 sailors!

Angie, what a beautiful, proud day that was for your family! Congratulations to our newest sailor! So glad you were able to have them both in GL together! Wonderful seeing your smiley face again!!!
